Trial summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the vertical extraction system Benex and Physics forceps with the conventional extraction tools (extraction forceps and elevators) in the early wound healing period after tooth extraction, as means for minimally invasive tooth extraction.

About this study

The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the vertical extraction system Benex and Physics forceps with the conventional extraction tools (extraction forceps and elevators) in the early wound healing period after tooth extraction, as means for minimally invasive tooth extraction.

All patients aged 18 years and over who require closed tooth extraction with good oral hygiene were eligible for participation.

Participants were randomly allocated to tooth extraction with either Benex, Physics forceps or conventional extraction tools using box randomization. Patients are followed up during the recovery period to assess pain and early wound healing, while at the time of extraction, success and buccal cortical plate fracture were evaluated.

Being tested
Tooth extraction, Benex, Physics Forceps, Conventional Extraction Forceps

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tooth extractionProcedure or surgery

    A regular closed tooth extraction was performed with the different devices from each arm.

  • BenexDevice

    Benex was used to perform the intervention.

  • Physics ForcepsDevice

    Physics forceps were used to perform the intervention.

  • Conventional Extraction ForcepsDevice

    Conventional Extraction Forceps were used to perform the intervention.

Benex tooth extractionExperimentalThis is the first study group where patients undergo extractions with presumably the vertical tooth extraction system Benex.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Extraction success

    The scale suggested by Choi was used to assess each of the extraction systems.

    Scored from 1 to 5. Higher is better.

    Measured: From the beginning of the extraction to the completion of the procedure

  2. Alveolar bone buccal cortical plate preservation

    The difference between the height of the alveolar bone buccal cortical plate is measured before and after the tooth extraction.

    Scored in milimeters missing. Lower is better.

    Measured: From the beginning of the extraction to the completion of the procedure

  3. VAS pain score

    Patients were asked to rate their pain experience on a visual analog scale (VAS).

    Measured in centimeters on 10cm line. Lower is better.

    Measured: 0, 1, 3, 7 day

  4. Early wound healing

    Landry's early wound healing index was used to evaluated the extraction healing process.

    Scores from 1 to 5. Higher is better.

    Measured: 3, 7, 10 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tooth extraction, Benex and Physics Forceps in people with Tooth Extraction Status Nos, run by Plovdiv Medical University at 1 site in Bulgaria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Bulgaria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Extraction success (time frame: From the beginning of the extraction to the completion of the procedure). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jul 2024.
